Meanwhile, Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) leader Hafiz Hussain Ahmed termed Pervez Musharraf a coward and said that the former army chief was powerful just because of the army uniform but in actual Musharraf was a timid fellow.

Talking to media persons outside the Parliament House on Thursday, Hafiz Husain Ahmed said while heading towards the Special Court, Pervez Musharraf could not go to the GHQ but he had reached the AFIC.

A Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) spokesperson Dawa Khan Saber said that Musharraf’s illness was a ‘drama’ and the government was also involved in it to avoid the case, adding that the former dictator should be provided treatment in the country as there were many good hospitals in Pakistan too. He, however, said if the court allowed sending Musharraf abroad for treatment, his party would have no objection to it.

Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) spokesman Zahid Askari also called Musharraf’s heart attack a ‘joint drama’ of former president and the government.JI leader Assadullah Bhutto said that Musharraf’s illness was a conspiracy to pave the way for sending him abroad.
